In Reply to: OK, please describe how to hook up a Micro-Rendu posted by oldmkvi on May 11, 2016 at 15:38:22:
Sure.First, you do not need the iMac in the hifi room.
The hook up looks like this:
NAS (Network Attached Storage) OR networked computer with files on hard drive, or attached hard drive in any room in the house. You run DLNA or ROON software on either the NAS or computer (set it and forget it, once it scans your library, it is invisible, and you don't have to mess with it)
Ethernet Cable connects to your microRendu or SOtM 200 on your hifi rack,
then a USB cable out from either device to your DAC.That is it.
You browse your library and control playback with any number of control points on an Android or iOS device.
Benefits?
No noisy computer in the listening room. No noisy hard drives. No software to mess with,
And best of all. ONE central library you can send files to multiple rooms with superior sound.
